The fluorescent lights lining Sanatorium Hall C drone with a low, intermittent flicker, painting the scuffed linoleum floor in sickly shades of grey. The air hangs heavy with the chemical tang of antiseptic and the metallic scent of old rust. From the far end of the corridor comes the sudden, jarring clatter of a gate being shaken.

A thin, wet rasp escapes his throat as he raises his mutilated hand, the freshly glistening stump offered toward the harsh light. He waits, perfectly still, for you to step closer.
